One more install - the MGP caliper covers - custom made. Didn't want to invest in a BBK as it does not make sense for my short city driving. What you guys think?

nice, it looks awesome, I want a set too, but i just want to know if this will fit with the stock rims?
also want to ask you, what size of rims did you pick 19 by what, also what size of tires?

I like what you have done with your G so far. So do you have any aftermarket sway bars at all? I currently have Hotchis sport sway bars and I would do the GT Spec bars as well but does it really make that much of a difference combined?

Dynamat / B-quite in the wheel wells....hmmm? I get alot of noise thier would love to try it but I thought that sound deadening stuff was only meant for the inside of the car. Will it actually hold up to the elements?

It's highly sticky and goes behind the liner...so should be fine long term...but only time will tell.

It has made a big difference.

All the braces came to around 1300...including install.

See my latest post - "The price of love an beauty" for mod list and pricing.

Install took about 4 minutes...wiring on the other hand....I had done. Took about 1.5 hours.

I really like the mirrors as they look factory.

I just installed a fast intentions exhaust. Isn't there one of the braces that I cant get now because of it being an aftermarket exhaust? If so, Which one can i not get?

The braces are made out of aluminum. The paint gets chipped and wears but you should be fine.
